I am developing a JSF2.0 + PrimeFaces 2.2 + ObjectDB web application. It is a forum kind of thing taken a step further: new posts appear 'instantly' in every online users browser right after posting them.
The posts can contain images and videos too, so updating a <p:dataTable> every 1-2 seconds with <p:poll> does not work; videos will restart and images will flicker.
I am interested in suggestions. How would you implement this type of functionality?
I started by making a <h:panelGroup> that contains all the posts. Now I want to make another <h:panelGroup> on top of the first, where I can add new posts.
Thanks in advance, Daniel
